CLINCHES THE NAIL.

The Flandrau Enterprise, the sturdy
Republican organ of Moody county, has
been looking over the returns and finds
that the seven counties in the South,
which contain the cities of Mitchell,
Pierre, Huron, Sioux Falls, YanktOn
and the towns controlled by the Homes
take Mining company. gave majority
of 6,537 for division, while the balance
of the territory has given half as much
majority in opposition.
1.-The men who have controlled the af-
fairs of the seven counties above named
have been vigorously preaching division
in the interests of economy, and the as
sumption has been that they are experts
in the matter of economical adminiStra-
ton of public affairs. We find. how
ever says the Enterprise, THAT on
July l, 1SS6-the latest figures at hand
the bonded county Indebtedness of the
seven counties was 81 JIG, $50, while the
bonded county Indebtedness of the other
Seventy-nine counties in the territory
was only 1.251, 65S. In other words, the
seven counties which carried the terri
tory for division have an average county
Indebtedness about ten times as great
as the average of the rest of the counties
in the territory"

DAKOTA AS ONE STATE.

1t was evidently the anticipation of
the leaders of the division cause that the
voting on the Sth of November would
remove the question from the range of
active controversy. If it has so resulted.
it is because the people have squelched
them and flattened the life out of their
cause. Just look at the way they did it.
Only three out of thlrty-seven counties
in the North vote for division, and in
the South, fifteen of the fOrty-nine coun-
ties declare for unity-that is fOrty-nine
counties of the territory vote for admis-
sion as one state, and thirty-seyen for
two states. 1t is immaterial that mar
gin of 5000 or so is shown for division.
The scheme is wrecked. 1t is not ex-
pected that these factionists will recOg-
nize the facts of the situation, and keep
their hands off while the people move on
in the line of early statehood.
Admission as whole is now the livest
political question Dakota has ever had.
The territory is alive with it. Reports

TYNER SHOULD sQUEAL.

Various efforts to induce Gen. TYNER
10 break loose from the letters his en-
plOyer has put upon him, and a tale un-
fold of the epistOlary emergence via
Aberdeen, have not proved quite sue
cessful, although he is exceedingly
FESTIVE under the restraint. The reti-
cence imposed upon him even deprived
the stock breeders at jamestown of the
exhaustive and spicy paper he had
promised them. He has imbibed the
singular impression that Gov. CHURCH
is eager for a persC MI interview, and
has spent the week outside the terri
tory. probably with view to make the
view of the executive tele-
SCOPE one. He claims to have
something in the way of an I'M
sworn affidavit. signed by eX-GOv.
PIERCE, that his Aberdeen etfuSiOn was
not only brilliant, but struck the right
parties in exactly the right way. In
fact, PIERCE rather intimates that he
wants a share of the credit himself.
This confidential view is probably given
to tiatter the vanity and hold in check
the unhappy TYNER. But it's mean
ness on his part to keep TYNER between
Jim and the public eye.

STOCK RAISING

From various incidental causes there
was rather meager attendance at the
annual meeting of the Dakota Live
Stock Breeders association which con-
vened at jamestown this week. The
organization is not a large one, and does
not derive its Importance from numeri-
cal strength, having but about seventy
five members, but from the character
of the interests they represent, and the
growing magnitude of one Of the great
sources of the future wealth of the ter
ritOry. The members represent the
bulk of the enterprising men who are
seeking to make the territory as noted
for its improved and blOOded stock as it
already is for its cereals. Something
Of the progress making in this direction.
with the experience and observation of
practical gentlemen, was shown in the
papers read and discussion had at
jamestown. 1t was shown that there
are no climatic or natural obstacles to
the placing of this industry in the van
of the stock interests of the country.
While the discussions related largely to
the varieties best adapted to the various
purposes and the most economical
methods of production, it was given as
demonstrated facts that in quality and
facility of production, the grasses and
climate of Dakota had material advan-
tage over the regions further south. 1t
was strongly urged by DR.. ALLAwAY,
the veterinary surgeon of the territory
and acting president of the meeting,
that the high latitude and pure atmOS-
phere gave exemption from diseases in
cident to domestic animals in less brac-
ing climates. The only exception TO
this, he stated, was CHAMBERS among
horses. He had found cases of this
kind in nearly every county, and had in
the short time he had held the office,
killed over 800 horses. 1t had obtained
this fOOthOld, in his opinion, through
neglect and lack of legislative measures
for its eradication. He believed that
the radical work now in progress would
result in its determination. He drew
glowing picture of the future of
the stock interest. There are al
ready herds of graded cattle
numbering as many as 500 head, and
those from 80 to 100 are becoming very
numerous. The most important detail
considered at the meeting was that of
providing for annual combination sales
of graded stock at one or more central
points. 1t is designed to give them
volume and character that will invite
purchasers from the great cattle ranges
of other territories and states. Incl
dentally the fostering of the sheep in
dustry and the dairy interests, espe-
cially in the establishment of cream
cries, were favOrably considered. 1t
was held that nowhere can sheep be
more successfully grown, and that the
butter of the higher ATTITUDES has SUI
periOr qualities.

FARMERS ALLIANCE.
The Annual Meeting to Be Held at
Huron Dec, 13

Special to the Globe.
HURON, Dec. 1.-The following call
has been issued: The date of our an
nual session has been fixed for Dec. 13,
at Huron. 1t will soon be time for local
alliances to prepare for the session. For
the basis of representation please read
carefully section 2. article /, of our con-
stitutiOn; also sections II and IL. ALI
ances to be in good standing must have
their dues paid. Delegations should
see that the alliances have RENTED
their dues.
If changes in constitution are desired,
send notice to the secretary as per sec
ton ,, article l.
Your executive committee thinks that
certain bills should be prepared and
discussed at our annual session. We
expect to have committee of legal
gentlemen of ability and undOubted in
tegrity present to advise us on all legal
points.
Having all our principal bills pre-
pared, we expect to pledge all candi-
dates for legislative hOnorS to support
those bills just as prepared, without al
teratiOn or amendment, if they expect
to receive our support. You will see
that it is important that you should have
meeting on Dec. d. Senu your very
best men as delegates; men who can
present and advocate your views and at
the same time be prepared to acquiesce
with the views of the majority.
The session can be made of more
value to the farmers of Dakota than any
session of the past legislatures. Do not
come with the expectation of rushing
through our work in part of two days as
has been the custom; come prepared to
remain all week if necessary. We are
satisfied that it will require at least four
days and would suggest the following
special programme for each session OF
day:
Tuesday-Opening: Appointment of
committees; report of officers; reports
from alliances, county and local.
edneSday-Report of alliance hail
association and discussion of insurance
matters: report of incorporated COM
pany and discussion in connection there
with; joint session with Dakota Horti-
cultural society.
Thursday-Report of standing COM
mittees and legislative programme.
Friday-Election of officers.
The session can be made more inter-
esting and pleasant if as many delegates
as possible will bring their wives or
other lady friends along.
Hoping for pleasant. interesting and
profitable session, we are yours frater-
nally, H. l.. LoUCKs, President.

THE FARMERS, ALLIANCE.

The annual meeting of the Farmers
Alliance at Huron. week after next,
promises to be gathering of very con-
siderable interest in a political way.
The general purposes of the OrganiZa-
ton are to advance the material inter-
eStS of the farmers, who comprise the
great majority of the people of the ter
rItOry. There are a variety of methods
which have been found to promote their
pecuniary welfare, as results of system
attic and concerted action. These are
covered mainly in the processes of dis
posing of their products and buying
supplies. In the furtheTance of these,
especially in marketing their products,
they are met with obstruction on the pant
Of some of those who handle and haul
their grain. To remove these ObStruc-
tions they seek legislative aid. The
alliance is not a political organization
and does not propose to take the field as
political party, but it does intend to
make its voice felt in the shaping of the
laws of the territory that affect its in
terests. 1t controlled the larger branch
of the last legislature and lacked but
little of a majority in the other. The
alliance people mean to have no slip
next time; and, with view to securing
the relief desired, they propose now to
have their measures embodied in bills.

ayers of the Northern Pacific and Mil
waukee roads. The farmers of the al
lance demand the right to ship their
grain in their own way without paying
tribute to the elevators as monOpOlieS.
They asked of the roads permission to
erect cheap warehouses on side tracks
in which to store and from which to ship
Their wheat. They were told they
might build elevators, but not cheap
warehouses. This reply to their de-
mands was but an aggravatiOn. as they
had not the means to erect elevators.
They believe that compliance with their
requests would involve no injustice to
the railroad or any considerable incOn-
yenience, as the shippers load the cars,
and the farmers do not ask any prlvi-
leges not accorded the elevators.
With the low prices of wheat of late
and the Scanty margins of profit, the
farmers are not disposed to abate what
they believe are their rights in this mat
ter. They claim that this policy of the
railroads virtually forces them to use
the elevators, and submit to any exac-
tons these lucrative institutions may
impose, with often unfair dockage and
grading. There is no competition among
buyers, because only the elevators can
secure cars for shipping. In the CORE
spOndence referred to, Mr.. LoUCHs
claims that the elevator route deprives
the farmer of from 9 to 10 cents bushel

ALL T ORN UP.
An Internecine War, of Intense
Intensity, Raging in the PrOhi-
bitiOn Ranks at Fargo.
THE LOoKER-IN.

Special to the Globe.
FARGO, Dec. 2.-Tribute has been
given the ladies of the w. G, L. u. as
the motive power that carried prohibit
ton; but it was noticed that the organi-
ZatiOn was rent with feuds and factions
that were barely kept smothered until
after the election. A few weeks ago the
w. G. Il. U. had its annual election
after several adjOurnmentS and two
weeks effort, and the names of an Off
cial board were published. But the de-
feated faction kicked-that is metaphor
ically, in speaking of ladies-and the
installation has never taken place. 1t
was alleged that, in body of this kind,
a two-thirdS vote should be had to elect.
They have been diligently hunting over
all the parliamentary works for sanction
Attorney Twomey, a former MEM
Der of the legislature, and secured
from him written opinion. in which he
says he can find no authority in parlia-
mentary law for the action taken, and
they are now trying to find out
WHAT TIE OPINION MEANS.
This week a secret session was had,
and great pains taken to keep it from
the local press, in which they have sue
ceeUeu-dnU nOtlOH WAS cdIGieu IT.
Questing the officers declared elected to
resign. The latter say that if they were
not elected they can't resign. The
kickers insist upon the two-thirdS rule,
and more lawyers are retained-with a
prospect that the whole thing will come
to light. to the scandal of the worthy
persuasion. The factions run on the
lines of two prominent churches, each
struggling for control, in view of
the territorial meeting of the order
in Fargo next year. But, whether they
seek the glory of operating the ma
chine, or each desires to avoid the labor
of entertaining several hundred visitors,
is not quite understood. One practical
result of this apparently irrecOncilable
unpleasantness promises to be that the
saloon men will not be disturbed in
their vocation until the w. G. L. U. can
find out who are its officers. Some of
the most prominent ladies of the city
are active leaders of the factions, and
there is much excitement in the female
heart generally-and masculine irriga-
tiOn goes on.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1887-12-03


The press throughout Dakota, with
very few exceptions, has evinced de-
sire to accord fair treatment to the Aber-
deem convention: and, taking the news
paper comments as the index of the
popular feeling, it may be safely pre-
dicted that the convention will be the
largest ever held in Dakota territory.
That il will be composed of representa-
tive business men and farmers is happy
omen for the future welfare of the terri
tory. The popular demand for statehood,
so long ignored and thrOttled by class of
adventures, has eliminated in the call
for the Aberdeen convention. An eX-
animation of the general call that has
been issued shows SeVenty-Seven cOun-
ties represented out of the eighty-fve
that are organized in the territory. A
careful analysis shows all the pOpulOuS
counties in South. Central and North
Dakota fully represented. One lOOksin
vain, however, for the names of the
